Reason: There's nothing like the tones of old Kodachrome. An encyclopedic depiction of heavy industry, and wow.

Oppose because for the life of me I can't tell what I'm looking at-- is this an aperture in the furnace? How big is it? Pretty, but not encyclopedic. Spikebrennan (talk) 15:12, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Furnaces need oxygen. The photographer is above the opening and slightly to one side, shooting down at the coke. Durova^Charge! 19:33, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per above, and everything is slightly out of focus at full res. Clegs (talk) 17:39, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I would have to oppose as well, while the photo of the coke itself is quite good, it is slightly out of focus and lacks a sharpness that I feel FPCs need. Plus the surrounding area does detract from the overall picture I feel. SGGH ^speak! 12:14, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support Getting a good picture of this subject is nearly impossible, and i think that any lack of sharpness is made up for with the composition. Teque5 (talk) 07:57, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
